This time last year my husband and I were getting ready to spend part of the holidays in New Orleans, Louisiana. We had a blast running around the city and seeing all the sights. One of the things I really enjoyed seeing was the huge Christmas tree with the fleur-de-lis on top. It was beautiful and right across from Jackson Square. It was so tall that it was hard to get a good picture. However, I enjoyed seeing and hope to visit NOLA again soon.
